White,Saylor Graven Image CD

You probably don't know Saylor White but you surely know his song 'Crossroads', Calvin Russell's biggest success. His songs have also been covered by Nanci Griffith, Lyle Lovett, Eric Taylor, & Keith Asbury, to name a few. In 1998, Saylor was chosen the Houston Music Council's Singer/Songwriter of the Year, & had various songs recorded on compilation albums. He's appeared on compilation CDs with the likes of REM & Steve Earle. His attendance at the 2001 & 2002 Kerrville Folk Festival, where he received numerous invitations to perform & co-write, was a rekindling of his spirit. In 1993, New Rose released Saylor's first album, 'That's Just the Way It Goes', which was critically acclaimed, but was not a great commercial success. Ten years later, unexpectedly, Saylor sent the Last Call label this batch of songs. Saylor proves, with 'Graven Image', that he is a major songwriter, & a wonderful singer. The more you listen to this album, the more his poetry & his irresistible melodies grow on you. Lots of young guys call themselves songwriters & sing about a life they have not lived, Saylor had a life, not an easy one, & he has stories to tell, real ones. Here are 13 of them to enjoy.
